•When digital zoom is used, the focus area is not displayed and the camera focuses at the center of the frame. Once focus has been acquired, the focus indicator (A6) will glow green.

•If the focus area or the focus indicator flashes red when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera is unable to focus. Modify the composition and press the shutter-release button halfway again.

• The shutter is released and the image will be recorded to the memory card or internal memory.

•If you press the shutter-release button with too much

force, the camera may shake, causing images to be blurred. Press the button gently.
